Why do none of these classes ever seem to provide enough information about the actual content?
For example what programming language will be used in this class?
- devans 15y agoThe course will use Python. There will be more detailed information posted about the course soon, but I'll try to answer any questions you have here.
- acidblue 15y agoReally looking forward to seeing how you approach this. I've spent years configuring, debugging and modifying Nutch and Lucene code and have always wanted to start from the beginning. Seems like a good time! Good luck, and we'll be watching!
- plinkplonk 15y ago"but I'll try to answer any questions you have here." ok so here is a question. How do you plan to let people online actually program a robotic car? (More likely) Do you plan to have some kind of simulated environment? Make hardware accessible through the web? actually run student programs on hardware (and send results back to students)? Make datasets from actual car sensors available? I am just wondering about the scope of the course here. More information would be great. Tangential: Does anyone actually write Robotics code in Python? All real life examples I've seen (that actually drive robots vs teach an algorithm) uses C/C++.
- devans 15y agoThe robotic car class is a separate class, so I'm not able to answer all the questions about that one. (I am pretty sure, though, we won't be able to actually send people physical robotic cars! There will be a simulated environment, but it will use real data.)
- plinkplonk 15y ago"The robotic car class is a separate class, so I'm not able to answer all the questions about that one" Oops. Sorry about that. My mistake :). Hopefully someone from the "robotic car" class will pop in.
- exim 15y agoNot relevant to your course, but do you know if it is planned to put other courses, like Compilers, Programming Languages Theory, Symbolic AI and maybe also Operating Systems, in the near future?
- devans 15y agoYes, there are plans to develop enough courses to cover all the major topics that would be part of a good university CS degree (although not always following the traditional structure of these courses), but it will be a while before more courses are launched.
- exim 15y agoCould you please point me to the reading list? Also, it would be great if you put course notes text besides videos.
